Can you re-size the pic to 1280X wide please.

Posting images.
You may post images providing they are hosted by a well known image hosting website, such as imageshack, photobucket etc.. Directly linking to images on other sites that are not expressly for that purpose (known as Hotlinking) is not permitted. Hotlinked images will be removed with an infraction notice issued. Repeat offenders will be suspended. The sharing of images from your own personal web-space is acceptable providing you are the owner and give permission to do so. However, the OCUK moderation team reserve the right to replace or remove any image that is suspicious of being hotlinked or unknowingly hosted by a members personal web-space, as it is not possible to identify those where permission has been granted or otherwise. Such decisions will not be overturned. To avoid complication, we strongly advise that all images are hosted by a image host as mentioned above, which can be easily identified as so. Images containing nudity, adult or offensive material, including swearing is prohibited. Please check your images before posting. No watermarks or URLs for sites containing content that wouldn't normally be allowed such as competitors, adult sites etc. Any images of such nature will be removed and your account immediately suspended or banned. Unless otherwise agreed by the moderation team, images must be no wider than 1280 pixels wide. The only exception to this are images posted in

Nice idea, might be a bit pointy to have in your pocket though

Jarrod · 4 Jun 2013 at 21:32

Done and yea its my own processor lol, fried as a dodo so thought I'd make use of it somehow

Jarrod · 4 Jun 2013 at 21:32

Oh also the edges have been rounded so they aren't sharp anymore xD

Does it overclock?

Skynet5 · 4 Jun 2013 at 21:56

U just use a high speed hand drill?

I have an old i7 920 and had the very same idea....

Lol nice. Then after you can add ram, a mobo and other components and start walking around with a computer in your pocket.

I know it's a bit late but are you sure you fried the CPU and it wasn't a faulty motherboard?

wazza300 · 4 Jun 2013 at 22:19

How did you kill it might I ask? Makes a pretty cool keyring I must say- better than leaving it to gather dust in a cupboard.

I did the same with my GTX480 and GTX460

Got a GF104 and GF100 core, one for my lorry keys and the other for my house.

Going to burn a GTX260 in a couple of weeks for the massive G200 core, have that put on my spare lorry keys then

wazza300 · 4 Jun 2013 at 22:21

lol have a whole pc hanging from your lorry keys and be done with it

Doco · 4 Jun 2013 at 22:22

That is an epic idea! half tempted to get a fried cpu just to rob your idea

lol

setter · 4 Jun 2013 at 22:22

Ive thought about doing this with an old 939 a64 4000 ive got, (my first ever cpu). But decided against it as i may buy a few bits and bobs to knock together a cheap rig.

wazza300 · 4 Jun 2013 at 22:23

I expect to see a lot of these keyrings in the coming months,esp with haswell

Make sure it's well cooled down, dont wanna go burning a hole in your pocket, or your gentlemens bits.
